Question
Chapter 15, Problem 1QP
To determine
Keynesian transmission mechanism and monetary transmission mechanism.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
The Keynesian transmission mechanism states that an increase in money supply affects the aggregate demand through the changes in the rate of interest or exchange rates. This would mean that there is an indirect link between the

likelihood
exercise = f (drinker, age, education, employment)
cancer likelihood = f (drinker, age, exercise,

cancer likelihood = f (age, exercise, education,
employment)
The Grossman model emphasizes the important roles that education, health knowledge, and expectations about future income and health play in the choices that determine health in both the short and long runs. Education both increases the likelihood of having higher income, which is good for health, and can compensate for lower income in which of the following ways:
a.
Education is associated with better health literacy, knowledge and execution of healthy diets and lifestyles
b.
Education enables people to communicate better with well-educated doctors and so they learn better how to manage their own health over time
c.
Education enables people to read about side effects and avoid unnecessarily risky procedures
d.
All of the above
e.
None of the above
Why do people confuse correlation with causation

- Nutritional economics. Suppose we are considering a hungry individual in the Grossman model deciding what to have for dinner. His options are listed in Table 3.2. Each dish has an effect on the level of the home good Z and health H. a. Suppose the diner’s single-period utility function is as follows:U =3Z +HIf the diner is trying to maximize his single-period utility, and he can only select one item from Table 3.2, which meal would he choose? b. If the diner is instead trying to maximize his lifetime utility and not just his single period utility, how might your answer to Exercise 16(a) change? Is he likely to value Z or H more in the lifetime context than the single-period context? Explain your answer, and be sure to invoke the concept of a capital goodarrow_forwardNutritional economics.

- Our earlier model focused on the most basic trade-off introduced by the policy. One aspect of the policy that is also heavily debated is the fact that not every household can afford to upgrade their car in order to avoid paying the ULEZ fees. We now want to understand how best to design the scrappage scheme, which subsidises changing cars for those who need it the most. In particular, we want to know whether the scrappage scheme can create a moral hazard problem. To guide our analysis, consider the following simple model. The government would like to introduce a subsidy to help citizens who need their car for work and cannot afford to buy a ULEZ-compliant car. It also wants to ensure that only citizens who need to drive their car regularly use the subsidy. Instead of the two groups of citizens discussed above, we focus on one particular citizen who does not drive very often, only once a year. As a result, this citizen does not emit excessive pollution even with a car that is not…arrow_forwardCan you please elaborate on what incoterms are and why they're importantarrow_forwardOur earlier model focused on the most basic trade-off introduced by the policy.

- True or false? According to the Grossman model, if a new drug were discovered that eliminated the steady deterioration of health that accompanies aging – but does not eliminate sudden events like heart attacks or being hit by a bus – then the demand for jelly donuts, french fries, and physical activity in the presence of buses would decline.

Let xR denote the quantity of baseball cards owned by Ron and yR denote the quantity of Pokémon cards owned by Ron. Similarly, let xD denote the quantity of baseball cards owned by David and yD denote the quantity of Pokémon cards owned by David. Suppose, further, that for Ron, MRSRxy = yR/xXR, while for David, MRSPxy = yD/2xD. Finally, suppose xR = 800, yR = 800, xD = 200, and yD = 4,200. a) Draw an Edgeworth box that shows the set of feasible allocations in this simple economy. b) Show that the current allocation of cards is not economically efficient. c) Identify a trade of cards between David and Ron that makes both better off.
